OUT AND ABOUT

When I am out and about, I always snap a few I-phone pictures of things that catch my eye. 

Most often, I come home empty handed.

This gigantic glass lamp at Anthro had me drooling.  

The price tag, on the other hand, did not. 

Yes, I'm a little obsessed with brass and this assortment at an antique fair peeked my interest.  

I went home with three brass swans.  

Next stop, Ballard Designs Outlet.  I have no use for these pretty pale pink chairs, 

but one or two of them would look mighty fancy in a little girl's room.

I love the look of these oversize glass vases.

I should have noted the price, because I can think of a million uses for these.

This canvas map would make quite the statement.

I was seriously digging this orange settee.  Wish I had a place for it. 

Someone needs to go snag this round bone mirror. 

So, I like the wicker console and the wicker x benches, but not together.  

One or the other would be enough for me. 

Next stop, Grandin Road Outlet.  I kept going back to this red chair.  

I ended up leaving without it, but I definitely did a double take. 

And a white version of the Louis ghost chair.

This quirky metal arrow caught my attention.  Odd as it was, I bought it.  

Apparently, it qualified as wall art which happened to be 50% off that day.

It's hanging in the playroom now.  I'll show you soon.

Now, on to TJ Maxx. 

Gotta love this place.  Where else can you score a wicker chair, 

a purple bra and some strappy sandals all in once place.

I definitely don't need anymore toys or stuff in my house, but if I did, 

I could hide them away in these awesome canvas storage baskets. 

Since Target is my second home, I snapped a picture of these great round storage ottomans. 

I love the nailhead trim.

Yes, I've been all over the place lately.  

This child size vintage beverage cart was for sale

at a huge outdoor antique show I attended over the weekend.

I didn't buy it, but it was so darn cute. 

As was this child size library cart. It was sold before we got to it. 

Believe it or not, I came home completely empty handed from the show. 

However on the way home, we stopped at three, yes, you heard me, three different TJ Maxx stores.   My friend was on the hunt for a particular pillow sham.  

She found the sham and I made small purchases from each TJ Maxx.  

So much for coming home empty handed. 

I didn't buy this super cool bench, but it would look so fabulous at the end of a bed. 

I really am more of a browser than a buyer.

How about you, are you a browser or a buyer?
